AERONAUT Allston is back!!!
We've been packing crowds into the awesome new outdoor community program and performance space at Zone 3's hub of activity, 267 Western Ave in Allston. It's an upgrade from the blacktop parking lot of the past two years – but it still feels like home!
Our 3rd season showcases the best in local bands and musicians, fantastic local food trucks, and great beer!
AERONAUT Allston takes place every WEDNESDAY (5-9:30pm) and FRIDAY (5-11pm), June 1 to September 28 at Zone 3 (267 Western Ave). See our full season lineup here: http://www.zone3westernave.com/aeronaut/
Zone 3 is a Harvard-sparked initiative to further activate and energize Western Ave with creative programs, events, and retail. More info: Zone3WesternAve.com
These events are family-friendly, however, please note that under 21s are allowed in only with a parent or legal guardian.
Read below for details on this evening's featured acts and other details. Bring your friends, neighbors, kids, and your dog, and we'll see you under the string lights!
Cheers,
the AERONAUT Allston team

FEATURED MUSICAL ACTS for WED AUG 15
We're sure to have a packed crowd so get there EARLY for the best seats on the lawn.
Vinyl Street (5:30pm)
Vinyl Street has been a fixture of the Boston a cappella scene since 2007. Their members live and work in all corners of Massachusetts but we come together each week to arrange, rehearse, and perform an eclectic mix of past and contemporary music. They were a big hit in the parking lot two season ago during our first year of Aeronaut Allston!
Josh David & The Funeral Puppets (6pm)
The Funeral Puppets fuse rock, folk, and pop into a unique brand of foot stomping, whiskey chugging, old fashioned fun.

The Hats (7:30pm)
Originally established as ‘Pat & the Hats’ in 2012 to support the release of Gochez’ chamber-pop debut, Heavy Loader, the band released both a full-length record (Fake it till You Make a Hit 2014) and a follow up EP (Pat & the Hats 2016). They quickly became a regionally recognized name receiving a New England Music Award for ‘Best Pop Act’ in 2014, a nomination in the same category in 2015, and accolades from regional press outlets in NH, MA, VT and beyond. “The band has a polyglot of influences, from late ‘70s punk-pop to more modern acts like the Flaming Lips, all rooted in classic sensibility… (M. Witthaus The Hippo Press).” The diversity in the indie/pop-rock band’s sound nudged them into a variety of showcases and festivals, sharing bills with Lucius, Lake Street Dive, and the late Charles Bradley. 2018 holds no lack of momentum for the freshly rebranded Hats, as they prepare for the release of their next full-length album.
